Martin Stiemerling has entered the following ballot position for draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-tcp-keepalive-04: No Objection
When responding, please keep the subject line intact and reply to all email addresses included in the To and CC lines. (Feel free to cut this introductory paragraph, however.) Please refer to https://www.ietf.org/iesg/statement/discuss-criteria.html for more information about IESG DISCUSS and COMMENT positions. The document, along with other ballot positions, can be found here: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-tcp-keepalive/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMENT: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Two comments for your considerations: 1) Section 3.3.2 is talking about this "It is reasonable for this value to change [...] or in consideration of intermediary behaviour (for example TCP middleboxes or NATs)." Can you please clarify how the DNS client or server is able to inspect the behaviour of intermediated devices and adapt its behaviour accordingly? This smells a bit like a half-baked idea which does not belong into a standards track document. 2) Section 3.6. talks about using Multipath TCP. Please note that Multipath TCP is still experimental and has known security issues, which are dealt with right now. Further, I would recommend to move this to a non-normative appendix, noting that this is a potential future way forward, but that is has not yet been tested and deployed. This would also honor that RFC 6824 is listed in the informative part of the references. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
